Yeah, but stop every car coming down a road and search/check every person? I thought they had to have some cause to pull you over.
What if some guy gets fired from his job because he had to sit in line for half an hour, and he has done absolutely nothing wrong?

It really does seem like that should be illegal constitutionally or something...


Fired is better than dead.

My wife was out shopping with my mother in law. She left the N Attleboro Wal-Mart around 11:30 and started to travel home. As she pulled onto the main road and started to head home she ran into a DUI check point. She waited in line for over a half hour. When it because her turn she was approached by an officer who stated to ask her questions. "What were you doing tonight, where were you, have you been drinking?" She noticed SWAT guys nearby as well a B.A.T. Mobile. I kid you not that what was printed on the truck.
Now I'm one of those LEOs cant do anything wrong type, but seriously isn't the check points Nazi like. Not to mention SWAT teams, and a Bat Mobile(lol). Now I will grant this happened across the state line in Mass(and that might explain alot), but I just feel that this is wrong. So what are your thoughts. If I'm not mistaken this is illegal in my state of RI.
